Aminu Tambuwal, former governor of Sokoto state, stated that no politician with integrity would join the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) due to the current economic hardship in Nigeria. He criticized defections as driven by self-interest rather than the people's welfare. Tambuwal urged those who believe in Nigeria to unite and work towards ousting the APC-led government in 2027.
Aminu Tambuwal, a former governor of Sokoto state, says no politician with a conscience would join the All Progressives Congress meeting of the Peoples Democratic Party in the north-west zone.
“People leave parties for certain reasons or for different reasons, but what I have been observing is that defections are not based on the interest of the people but based on stomach infrastructure, Tambuwal said.
